This year, TechRound has profiled over 50 startups as part of our weekly Startup Of The Week series. These startups have spanned a variety of sectors, from logistics, to food, education and charity.

Startup Of The Week has predictably been one of our most-read slots, with thousands of people reading about the UK and Europe’s most innovative companies.

But this year, we wanted to do something different. We wanted to crown one Startup Of The Year.

We looked at the back end of the site to find the 4 most-read and engaged with companies, and put it to social media for a vote. Well – the results are in and our official Startup Of The Year can be crowned.
